I LOVE IT! I love that kind of website..The web should be made of loads more
sites like this !
To me it has this special thing, which makes it so exciting to view..like going
through the grammatron or acidtrip.com//a universe website, u know what I mean..
OKay...I tell you at the beginning I was telling myself Wow this man does so
much stuff (especially when I was at the scientist page about cadmium emissions,
after the tube mosaïc, and the boy, and a few more)lol, that's because I
was looking for the adn to work and didn't really read the text at the begining.
But still, before reading the text, I was still going trough the site, and I
knew it after a bit..but ignoring the truth about it makes people experience the
site even more, I think, but that's my personnal point of view.
I hope people will feel the same as I did, the suprise and discovery of it, the
adn, maybe you should not tell them the truth from the beginning..other people
should like it with the text too..
But the colour of the text on the first page tends to make it disappear a little
bit, and you chose this colour...strange
But I love it! Great !

sincerely

Djehan

ps: everything was working ok on my computer ¿

hello,
why would it be too complex? It expresses something real almost everyone
experience like when you find your homonyme on google, and you check it and you
see those pages(I am so sad I don't have one).I think it could be a website
people would go back to but when they have the time..or is it just me?

 I agree with prior comments, Owen. An interesting site but probably too 
 complex for most networkers. -Don

hi owen,

one thing you might do is increase the contrast in the text as i cannot read it at 
all. it
downloaded quite fast (on dialup).

 The initial animated graphic is a Java script and might load a little slowly on a

 it
 is too slow to load).

Hi Owen,
I like the site a great deal.  Have you posted an earlier version of it
before? It seems familiar.

I agree with Carol, however, that at least the text on the main page needs
to have more contrast. I'm sure it looks different from monitor to monitor,
but a 60/40 or 70/30 tonal difference would help. I also like how the
numbers in the left menu disappear once selected. Against the black
background, it creates a pattern of your travels through the site.  One
caveat, and I'm not sure if it's intentional, but when I scroll down only
the text scrolls.  This means you can only access the numbers that will fit
in the window. I am working on a laptop with a 15 screen, and I can't see
numbers past the 60s with my window as large as I can make it...

Looks good overall, though!
Candace.

 That goes for me, too.
 You might also like to include your mother's maiden name. Your last few

This is really well done. As a person who has a fetish about cast-off
objects I found it very refreshing. Thanks.

 For those of you who might be interested I just uploaded a new
 documentation site for a project 
 that I worked on last year, called the Canned Chance Project:
 
 http://www.altarts.org/tstcn/index.html
 
 Part of the project was connected to my participation in the Fluxlist
 Timepieces project. For 
 those of you who have slow connections the site might be a little slow
 because of some of the 
 image sizes. 
 
 I would be interested in any and all responses. . . . .
